Guest Reviews

• Nicolas (10/5): -
• ria (9/5): Goed verblijf op fantastische locatie. - De omgeving is prachtig. De natuur zo mooi. De wandelingen die je kan maken in de buurt zijn onvergetelijk. De eigenaren zijn ontzettend vriendelijk, zorgzaam en gastvrij. Doen er alles aan om je een fijn verblijf te geven. Er is niks op aan te merken.
• Sofia (10/5): Magnifique - La gentillesse, le lieu magique
• johan (10/5): - Wat voor een heerlijke oase ! Fantastische rustige locatie met een geweldige gastheer en ontbijt
• peter (10/5): gezellig en lieve mensen - het was perfect een haardroger
• Minh Thuong (9/5): wir sind sehr zufrieden - Das Frühstück ist sehr gut und bietet viele lokale Produkte. Der Wellnessbereich mit Sauna und Jacuzzi ist hervorragend – es gibt wirklich nichts zu beanstanden. Die Mitarbeiter sind sehr freundlich, nett und äußerst hilfsbereit. Nichts zu beanstanden
• Glenn (10/5): -
• Chloé (10/5): Heerlijk - Heel vriendelijke gastheer. Alles was heel netjes. Fijne wellness. Heerlijk ontbijt. Heerlijk rustig.

• Gina (10/5): Zeker voor herhaling vatbaar ! - Super ontbijt, allemaal lokaal ! Supervriendelijke uitbaters. Goed gelegen, mooi uitzicht. Er is kleine bar en kleine welness voor de liefhebbers, waarbij men rekent op de goedhartigheid van de bezoeker. Hopelijk mag dit nog lang blijven bestaan ! Bij heel warm weer, kan het wel warm zijn op de kamers. Er is geen airco, maar dan ook, komt uitbater met een tussenoplossing..
• Rudy (8/5): Goed - Het ontbijt is uitstekend Steile trap naar de kamer
• Evi (10/5): Fantastisch! - Het vriendelijke ontvangst en het heerlijke ontbijt met lokale producten. Ook de kamer was heel netjes.
• DEBORAH (9/5): Génial Bed & Breakfast, avec petit spa et bar dans magnifique région - L’accueil chaleureux et la réactivité des hôtes Julien et Carole, le délicieux et copieux petit-déjeuner de produits locaux et de qualité, le véritable bar ardennais privé, le jacuzzi et la possibilité de manger sur place le soir. Bref, tout était super! J’aurais préféré un vrai sauna plutôt qu’une cabine à infra-rouge, mais c’est un détail, l’endroit est vraiment super.
• Thomas (9/5): Sfeervol! - Hele gezellig B&B, heerlijk ontbijt, vriendelijke eigenaren
• Teun (9/5): Top , gemakkelijk - De fantastische locatie, de bedden waren comfortabel. En wat ons opviel is dat de douche klein was maar een heerlijke waterstraal had. De plafons zijn een beetje laag, maar helaas kan je daar niks aan don.
• Manon (8/5): Heerlijke uitvalsbasis in de Ardennen! - Hele mooie locatie in de Ardennen. 5 minuten met de auto vanaf de La Chouffe brouwerij, waarvoor we in eerste instantie waren gekomen. Authentieke kamers. Lekkere douche, goed ontbijt en de gastheer die komt vragen of je een gebakken eitje met of zonder spek wil. Heerlijke wellness erbij in een aparte ruimte. Met een jacuzzi, een infrarood cabine en een massagestoel. Daar hebben we genoten! Het had gesneeuwd bij ons en dat maakt het dan wel weer extra speciaal. Ook erg lekker gegeten in de buurt van de B&B. Op 5 minuten wandelen zit een goed restaurant waar ze een kleine, maar goede kaart hebben. Nederlands sprekende eigenaars! Ook de eigenaar van de B&B spreekt Nederlands. Boek een rondleiding door de brouwerij en geniet achteraf van de proeverij. En maak een uitstapje naar Durbuy. Erg leuk in de periode van de kerstmarkten. De bedden vielen ons wat tegen. Dit had ik bij vertrek aangegeven en hij zou er naar kijken.
• Richard (9/5): Fijn op een mooie locatie - Mooie en fijne locatie gerunt door hele vriendelijke mensen Niets
• Deleu (8/5): Top - Alles genoeg Jammer dat we badjassengebruik dienden te betalen
• Józsi.... (10/5): C'était excellent ! - L'emplacement de la chambre était excellent. Le petit-déjeuner était délicieux, avec des saveurs maison. Merci beaucoup!
• michel (10/5): Kom graag weer terug - Fantastische plek,super ontbijt heerlijke jacuzzi. Erg vriendelijk gastheerschap
• Eliza (9/5): - Mooie plek vriendelijk gezin
• Annick (10/5): Geweldige b&b - Geweldige locatie. Super vriendelijke eigenaars. De honesty bar is een leuk concept. Mooie tuin. Zeer netjes. Zeer zeker voor herhaling vatbaar. Puur persoonlijk vond ik het jammer dat er geen trappistenbieren waren maar dat is een verwaarloosbaar detail.
• Zuzana (10/5): Brilliant place to stay and relax - Absolutely loved our time here at the F1 weekend in July, quiet location, with great facilities like relax room with infrared sauna and jacuzzi, honesty bar, tables to relax in the garden with pétanque area, delicious breakfast. Julian and his wife were brilliant hosts and doing great work with that property.
• Janine (10/5): - Geweldige B&B. Heerlijk ontbijt, ontzettend aardige eigenaren en heel schoon
• Ann (9/5): - Ontbijt, zeer vriendelijke eigenaars,welness Niets
• Hymke (10/5): A perfect place to find rest at this lovely B&B - We liked the location very much, it was a perfect place to find rest surrounded by lots of nature. The hosts were very kind and generous, and they gave good advice for nearby hikes of finding a good place for real Belgian bonbons. We had every day a lovely local breakfast and if you wanted a drink they had a personal bar for the guests. A 10/10 place for couples or when you have kids. We actually have no points that disappoint us about this location.
• Norbert (10/5): Perfect to experience the Ardenes in a comfortable and authentic way - Amazing service, friendly staff, feeling very welcome there
• Frederic (9/5): -
• Céline (10/5): Séjour inoubliable au cœur des Ardennes - Accueil chaleureux du propriétaire, grande propriété avec jardin très agréable et au calme, petit déjeuner extra avec produits locaux. Lieu idéal pour se re connecter à la nature. Nous reviendrons avec plaisir, merci pour tout!:) /
• Danielle (9/5): - Der Gastgeber war sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Wünsche, bezüglich Frühstück, wegen Intoleranzen wurden erfreulicherweise respektiert.
• Pascal (9/5): Would go back for sure! - Great place, very quiet in a small village, amazing hosts and exceptional breakfast! Nothing
• Roy (9/5): - Gastvrijheid en locatie
• Lisette (9/5): Fijne overnachting - Mooie, rustige locatie. Hartelijk ontvangen door de eigenaar. Er is een sfeervol barretje op het terrein waar je o.a. lekkere Belgische biertjes kunt drinken. Wij sliepen in een familiekamer. Er was buiten een klein speeltuintje waar de kinderen konden spelen, en tot hun vreugde hebben ze een kikker in de vijver gespot. Het ontbijt was overheerlijk!
• Christof (9/5): -
• Christoffer (10/5): Et rigtig dejligt sted - Fantastisk imødekommende og sød familie. Alt er gennemført og gennemtænkt. Alt fra indretning til mad og drikke. Virkelig lækkert. Lokale delikatesser, gode belgiske øl og meget mere Skøn oplevelse. Vi kommer helt sikkert igen. Alt var godt
• Giulia (8/5): Lovely b&b, host made us feel very welcome - Lovely b&b in a lovely, quiet and green corner of the Ardenne. Loved the host and the breakfast. Facilities were also very enjoyable.
• Tiemen (9/5): Wonderful B&B, hospitality great and the breakfast a true treat! - Ambiance and staff - perfect Nothing really
• Yüce (10/5): Cozy place - Cozy place, frienship manager, beatiful breakfast with homemade products -
• Bart (10/5): Exceptional -
• Tobias (10/5): I would definitely recommend . - Julien was an excellent host and served a delicious breakfast. Very helpful indicating walks and attractions. The countryside was impressive - even on a wet January weekend.
• Bram (9/5): Superb -
• Emile (10/5): Amazing Stay with Wonderful Hosts! - I recently stayed at this charming hotel and had an incredible experience. The owners, Julien and Carol, were absolutely amazing. They were so welcoming and went above and beyond to help us, even picking us up after a long walk around the countryside. The room was cute and cozy, and their café/bar was the icing on the cake. I 100% recommend this place and will definitely stay here again whenever I’m in the area. Thank you so much again!
• Bas (8/5): Short stay for convenient base for cycling - Well positioned. Friendly host. The window of my room was very low: not ideal for privacy and sense of space.
• Joanna (10/5): Very nice place to spend time and rest! - Everything was great! Fresh, local food and beer. Cosy garden. And very nice and helpful hosts. We regres it was only a weekend. -
• Tobitde (10/5): Exceptional -
• Marios (10/5): Exceptional - The B&B is located in a very nice and quiet village and it has even its own self-service bar. The room and the wellness center are perfect. The breakfast was amazing with fresh local products. The owner, Julien, is super helpful and kind. I totally recommend this place!
• Rami (8/5): Very good -
• Anonymous (9/5): Superb -
• Mcneill (10/5): Fabulous, super relaxing & very quiet with lots of cycling & hiking nearby. - Fabulous quiet location. Great views down towards Achouffe from the beautiful garden. Fabulous breakfasts with local produce. Good selection of local beers & the honesty system worked well. Very flexible with breakfast as we had an early start one morning during our stay. Quirky but very comfortable room (Liefmans). InterPol Nano brewery is now next door. Excellent good value restaurant in the village open at weekends. Julian & Carol were excellent hosts & have a passion for the property & service. Can't wait to return. Nothing.
• Marc (10/5): A crushing haven of peace ! - A personalized and very familiar approach where guest is the focus point. This starts from reception till departure. Much appreciated from our side is their operating philosophy based on local and responsible approach (local producers & recyclable products). On top you have a large garden - a relaxing wellness & also your personalized honesty bar. The location is in a very quiet neighborhood with near access to different activities & towns. We have a crush for the hosts Julien & Carol. Amazing how both pay attention & unburn each guest. RAS
• Glen (8/5): Very nice stay! - The people are lovely, helpfull and kind The amount of dust in the air in the bedroom was pretty disgusting. Cleanliness in the room could in general be better. Needed a deep clean.
• De (10/5): Excellent - The hosts are very nice. The wellness was exactly what I needed after hiking. The dinner and breakfast were excellent, a lot of local ingredients are used. Nothing
• Adam (10/5): Perfect Ardennes vacation - The owner, Julien and his wife were super nice and professional. We came to visit the arrdennes and especially to visit the La Chouffe brewery, and this place was everything we could have hoped for. The breakfast was fantastic made with fresh local food. Also in the evening there is a little bar where we drank beer and play pub games. Our room was very nice and comfortable. We will come back there for sure.
• Jasper (9/5): Superb - Very friendly staff, excellent breakfast, cosy atmosphere.
• Andre (10/5): Perfect stay in the Ardennes - A lovely B&B in a beautiful region in the Ardennes. Perfectly located to drive to some great spots to hike and enjoy nature. The B&B owner Julien was a very friendly, kind and helpful host. He even helped us book a reservation at restaurant Fleur de Thym where they made a vetegarian menu especially for us. He also recommended us to hike in Achouffe, which we enjoyed a lot. The room was nice, modern and had everything we needed. The breakfast every morning was so good, with local products such as pastries, yoghurt, eggs, juice, cheeses, fruits.. wow, a treat every day! There is also a garden with an amazing view on the green landscape surrounding the B&B, a private wellness, bar, and lounge. Highly recommended and we'd love to go back one day.
• Leonardo (10/5): Exceptional - Amazing and cozy place ina relaxed setting. Owners are very kind they make you really fell at your place. The perfect spot to start exploring the Ardennes.
• Paula-julia (10/5): A piece of paradise - The owner was very friendly and helpful. The location was great. The spa was awesome. The bar for guests only was really nice. The breakfast was super delicious with a lot of local products. Nothing.
• Eva (8/5): Very good - Very nice quiet village with only one brasserie, nice to walk around. The place itself is sweet, homey, the breakfast was very good and served by the owners, full of local specialities (tough a little small - we felt anoyed always asking for more). Also, the self service bar is a good idea in a village with nothing to do in the evening. The room was not appropriate for small children. There was a gallery where kids should sleep with steep stairs (also in general the stairs in the house are very steep and dangerous, difficult to being your bags up). The bed was not so comfortable, with artificial material used in the bed lining. The small self glued curtain was all the time falling down. The shower is really small.
• Fernanda (9/5): Superb -
• Ava (8/5): Quaint stay for families - Charming B&B with lovely owners who seem genuinely interested in their guests. When our baby got sick upon arrival, the owner went out of his way to make us comfortable. Our kids enjoyed playing with all the toys that are provided and using the outdoor swings with a lovely rural backdrop. We'll be back!
• Rami (5/5): Passable - The breakfast was great as were the owners I thought it was overpriced given the location and lack of amenities or comfort. The shower was extremely small and uncomfortable. The stairs were narrow and uncomfortable and felt dangerous at times. It felt stuffy and hot at times.. With that being said the place was clean. The owners were absolutely delightful and welcoming. The breakfast was great. Parking was easy to access. With that being said given my standards for accommodation I would not return again.
• Shaina (10/5): Exceptional - We had a wonderful stay at this b&b. The hosts put a lot of thought into the design and atmosphere. If you're on a tour of the brasseries in Belgium, or a quiet and comfortable place in the country, book it!
• Kiel (8/5): Very good -
• Paul (9/5): I will be coming back to this place - while being very close to the highway and the somewhat bigger towns, we weee still in a very quiet place. the honesty bar was an amazing touch and made it much better. The B&B is close to La Chouffe Brewery and is therefore great if you want to visit there. Truly have no remarks.
• Ingrid (10/5): I felt very welcome and cared for. it’s home away from home. - very nice and warm welcome. very clean. amazing breakfast. You really feel cared for. nothing to mention. it was all very good.
• Ulrike (10/5): Exceptional - peaceful, beautiful, lovingly put together throughout. delicious locally sourced b-fast with personal attention by the hosts
• Ryan (10/5): Beautiful and peaceful stay in the Ardennes - The owners of this B&B are fantastic, providing an uncommon attention to detail throughout our stay. The location is bucolic and the rooms and grounds are lovely. The breakfast is also superb and offered many delicious local products. We stayed here as part of a long and tough cycling trip through the Ardennes, and we couldn't have asked for a better place to relax at the end of a long day! I hope to get back soon!
